Middle 2p vs aggro rec player 5/10/20 live

Hey guys. Game is 5/10 with a mandatory straddle at aria. We are playing 4 handed.

Hero: Standard mid 20s kid in a hoodie. I play 5/10 for a living but this game is admittedly well out of my bankroll and experience. I'm not used to playing 10/20 or shorthand so the $ might have influenced my thought process in a negative way during the game.

Villain: Rec player, likes to gamble. Very friendly. A few hands prior he had minraised my flop cb on a K93 flop after calling 100 from straddle and seeing flop 3way. Bets 1/3 pot IP on turn 8o, then bombs 1250 into a pot of 1500 on river 6. I folded but he said he had 66 and thought I would be a nit and fold any pair to that line but 'accidentally' got there on the river. However he never showed his hand.

Hero raises BTN to $70 with 9cTc. Eff stacks $2500
Villain calls from SB, fold, fold.
Flop 9hThJc (pot $170)
Hero bets $120, Villain c/r to $430. Hero calls.

Turn Ao (pot $1030)
Villain bets $800 after tanking for some time.

First question is can we peel another card here? Obviously I did call but this might be where I should have folded since many rivers are going to be impossible to play. I'm starting to think that if we were deeper and had more implied odds on boating up that this is an easy call, but only having around 60bbs behind going to the river doesn't seem good in retrospect.

River 2o (pot $2630)
Villain ships for $1200
Hero?

Any advise here playing against villains like this? I had a hard time ranging him (and maybe leveled myself from the prior hand). We block both of the likely sets and villain would certainly raise JJ preflop, and probably some nonzero combos of KQ. I know FDs are in villains range on the turn at least, but since he would likely check A high hearts we can discount a lot of those bluff combos unfortunately. Thoughts?
